  @jengrata & @amedina - ang dvd kasi ay may corresponding regions; you may correct me on this BUT Pinas and Australia are not in the same region. So meaning, if you bring DVDs here, it will not work on a player that is bought in Australia.
  
  Yung lang!

  
  ahh, thanks @TasBurrfoot for this info

  Magpatahi ka na ng mga at least 3 sets (or more) ng suit (amerkana sa lumang wikain) para sa opis at sa mga interview. Mahal suit dito at lagi pang di sakto haba kaya gagastos ka pa sa paputol.
  
  Mga dark coloured na suit dapat ha (black, dark grey, dark blue) wag yung mga brown kasi walang gumagamit ng light coloured dito sa opis (kung para sa men).

  1 big duffle bag
  (parang ayoko kase ng maleta, space consuming. yung duffle bag & bb box pwede na i-fold after)
  
  hand-carry:
  1 backpack (7kg; dito ko ilalagay mga documents/papers, ilang damit, at kung ano pa kya ng weight limit)
  1 laptop case (para sa mga gadgets, i heard hindi ito tinitimbang, tama ba?)
  1 winter coat (bitbitin ko lang para makabawas sa weight limit)
